Another R1 (5PW) No spark

Have done a search but not come up with an answer.

We have the engine turning over but have no spark, we have voltage at the top of the plug and to the injectors but it will not spark

It is a 2003 R1 5PW

Anyone have any ideas

Tilt switch? Is "UP" on the top face?

We do have fault codes 19 & 22 on the clocks if that means anything and the engine warning light is on

Are you sure it didn't move after you put the plue in? Mine did as I pushed it back into the housing.

Stop switch wires connected?

I think fault 22 is the air temp sensor is not connected this will prevent the engine from starting

This is the sensor which lives in the airbox

Took it out and still secured in postion, so that is OK.

Stop switch / clutch switch and side stand switch all connected

Think 19 is the side stand.

Are the injectors firing? If not then check the connection to the crank sensor.

Code 19 refers to: Open circuit, side stand switch, in other words, either the sidestand switch is broken or some cable connection or cable from it is loose or cut off.

Still have engine management light on the clocks but it flashes as we turn the engine over.

I guess this light should not be on either

alright mate,

Greg had the same problem on his, ended up being a dodgy connection on the wire that feeds the plugs. (black and red i think)

Good luck!
Dave

I had a similar problem all i can say is trace everything back from source with reference to the haynes manual and check the continuity on all the major wires from ecu and starter relay to sensors like clutch stand etc.

Might also be worth running diagnostics and checking if the plugs fire in diagnostics mode under code 30-33 i think. Then atleast you know if they work and your just being held back by starter logic.

Tried turning over in diag' mode on 31-33 and still no spark, we know we are getting voltage to the top of the plugs/coils but nothing else

Hi mate, A tip malc told us to do when mine didnt start was to remove the spark plugs and clean the tip with brake fluid
not to sure if it will help in your case but might be worth a try

Have managed to get the spark plugs to fire in diagnostic mode, all 4 have sparked so at least we know that they will fire once they get their signal.

Must be something else, side stand in diagnostic mode says it is extended but we have shorted that circuit, should the starter cutoff relay click when side stand circuit is opened or closed

Is it a three pin red connector?

It has brown/red, black, and blue/yellow wires as per pictures



We also had major problems with the blues from the ECU and relay switch as they had all been cut, but think we have overcome this



Also Engine management light is on

taken from chocky mosters blog have you done these. Mine wasnt quite the same main difference being connect black and black from blue 8 pin connector - start

Main Switch (Red 2 pin connector) [1 on Yamaha wiring diagram]
Join Blue/Black --> Blue / Yellow

Main switch (White 2 pin connector)
Join Brown / Blue --> Red (connected via the ignition switch)

Right Handlebar switch (Blue 6 pin connector) [59 on Yamaha wiring diagram]
Join Red /Black --> Red White (Engine kill)

Side stand (2 pin Blue connector) [11 on Yamaha wiring diagram]
Join Black --> Blue / black

Left handlebar (10 pin white connector) [41 on Yamaha wiring diagram]
Join Blue / Yellow -> Black yellow (Clutch)

Fuel Pump (Green connector) [52 on Yamaha wiring diagram]
Use Red / blue as Fuel pump positive, this is fed by a relay in the start circuit cut-off switch. As a temporary measure I have a switch in the connection so that I can stop the pump from firing.
